MINDFULNESS

MINDFULNESS

“Deeply buried in the mind, there lies a mechanism that accepts what the mind experiences as beautiful and pleasant and rejects those experiences that are perceived as ugly and painful. This mechanism gives rise to those states of mind that we are training ourselves to avoid– things like greed, lust, hatred, aversion, and jealousy.”
― Henepola Gunaratana

Many clients ask about my experience of practising and teaching mindfulness. I learned from my maternal grandfather who was Buddhist. My experience of mindfulness is that if practiced for even for 1 minute a day, you can experience peace and insight into your difficulties.

“Meditation changes your character by a process of sensitization, by making you deeply aware of your own thoughts, words, and deeds.”
